"A perfectly woven tale rife with secrets, lies and seduction. Plenty of
action with a perfect dose of snark. High Fantasy done the JLA way!" -Lily

A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire, the enthralling and epic second book in A Blood
and Ash Series by New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout, is
available now.
Is Love Stronger Than Vengeance?
A Betrayal…
Everything Poppy has ever believed in is a lie, including the man she was
falling in love with. Thrust among those who see her as a symbol of a
monstrous kingdom, she barely knows who she is without the veil of the Maiden.
But what she does know is that nothing is as dangerous to her as him. The Dark
One. The Prince of Atlantia. He wants her to fight him, and that’s one order
she’s more than happy to obey. He may have taken her, but he will never have
her.
A Choice….
Casteel Da’Neer is known by many names and many faces. His lies are as
seductive as his touch. His truths as sensual as his bite. Poppy knows better
than to trust him. He needs her alive, healthy, and whole to achieve his
goals. But he’s the only way for her to get what she wants—to find her brother
Ian and see for herself if he has become a soulless Ascended. Working with
Casteel instead of against him presents its own risks. He still tempts her
with every breath, offering up all she’s ever wanted. Casteel has plans for
her. Ones that could expose her to unimaginable pleasure and unfathomable
pain. Plans that will force her to look beyond everything she thought she knew
about herself—about him. Plans that could bind their lives together in
unexpected ways that neither kingdom is prepared for. And she’s far too
reckless, too hungry, to resist the temptation.
A Secret…
But unrest has grown in Atlantia as they await the return of their Prince.
Whispers of war have become stronger, and Poppy is at the very heart of it
all. The King wants to use her to send a message. The Descenters want her
dead. The wolven are growing more unpredictable. And as her abilities to feel
pain and emotion begin to grow and strengthen, the Atlantians start to fear
her. Dark secrets are at play, ones steeped in the blood-drenched sins of two
kingdoms that would do anything to keep the truth hidden. But when the earth
begins to shake, and the skies start to bleed, it may already be too late.

Excerpt
“We go home to marry, my Princess.” As in get married? To him? Suddenly, I
thought of all those girlish fantasies I’d had before I learned who I was and
what was expected of me—daydreams given life because of the love my parents
had for one another. Never once did those little-girl dreams include a
proposal that wasn’t remotely an actual proposal. Nor did they incorporate it
being announced at a table full of strangers, half of which wanted me dead.
And those dreams surely hadn’t involved what had to be the kingdom’s worst—and
possibly most insane—non-proposal of marriage to a man currently holding me
captive. Perhaps I had some sort of ailment of the brain. Maybe I was
experiencing hallucinations brought on by stress. After all, there had been so
much painful death to process. His betrayal to deal with. And I’d just learned
I was descended from Atlantia, a kingdom I’d been raised to believe was the
source of all the evil and tragedy in the land. Stress-induced hallucinations
seemed a far more believable reason than what was actually happening. All I
could do was stare at the larger hand holding my much smaller one. His skin
was slightly darker than mine as if kissed by the sun. Years of wielding a
sword with deadly, graceful precision had left his palms callused. He lifted
my hand to an indecently well-formed and full mouth. To lips that were somehow
soft yet unrelentingly firm. Lips that had spun beautiful words into the air
and whispered heated, wicked promises against my bare skin. Lips that had paid
homage to the many scars that riddled my body and face. Lips that had also
spoken blood-soaked lies. Now, that mouth was pressed against the top of my
hand in a gesture that I would’ve cherished for an eternity and thought
exquisitely tender just days or weeks ago. Simple things like hand-holding or
chaste kisses had been forbidden to me. As were being wanted or feeling
desire. I had long since accepted that I would never experience those things.
Until him. I lifted my gaze from our joined hands, from that mouth that was
already curving up on one side, hinting at a dimple in the right cheek, and
from the slowly parting lips that revealed just a hint of fatally sharp fangs.
His hair brushed the nape of his neck and toppled over his forehead, and the
thick strands were such a deep shade of black, it often shone blue in the
sunlight. With high and angular cheekbones, a straight nose, and a proud,
carved jaw, he often reminded me of the large, graceful cave cat I had seen
once in Queen Ileana’s palace as a child. Beautiful, but in the way all wild,
dangerous predators were. My heart stammered as my eyes locked onto his, orbs
a shade of stunning, cool amber. I knew I was staring at Hawke—
